Create directory in LocalFS
by Jeff Nielsen / UgoFast 26 Sep '01

26 Sep '01

Can anyone tell me how to create a subdirectory programmatically under a LocalFS folder? I have a LocalFS folder called images. When I add a new promoter to my site, I'd like to automatically add a directory that would hold that promoter's images. If the promoter's ID number is 187, I want to create a subdirectory '187' under images/Companies/100. Jeff Nielsen / UgoFast http://www.UgoFast.com Jeff(a)UgoFast.com

StructuredText problem w/ literals & underlining
by sean.bowman＠acm.org 26 Sep '01

26 Sep '01

hello, I'm having a problem with StructuredText on Zope-2_4-branch under python 2.1.1. Literals with underscores in them get rendered as underlined rather than literals; for example, '__class_init__' gets rendered as StructuredTextParagraph(["'_", StructuredTextUnderline('class'), "init__'"], [ ]) rather than StructuredTextParagraph(StructuredTextLiteral('__class_init__'), [ ]) (which is how ClassicDocumentClass.DocumentClass renders it). The following patch works for me, but perhaps I'm just confused about the proper way of doing things with the StructuredTextNG package? regards, Sean --- DocumentClass.py Wed Sep 26 11:49:43 2001 +++ DocumentClassNew.py Wed Sep 26 11:48:55 2001 @@ -371,8 +371,8 @@ 'doc_href', 'doc_strong', 'doc_emphasize', - 'doc_underline', 'doc_literal', + 'doc_underline', 'doc_sgml', 'doc_xref', ]

random regex
by seb bacon 26 Sep '01

26 Sep '01

I'm finding that the regex which deals with links in structured text is broken (Zope 2.4.1, Python 2.1). If you try a link with a query string: "link":http://www.foo.com?ding=dong&bit=bat the part of the regex which is matching the url only matches up to the first '=' (or '&'). If I run the expression against a string in the python interpreter, the correct match is returned. The problem only occurs in lib/python/StructuredText/DocumentClass.py. After a lot of playing around with the expression, I found I could only get it to match correctly *by running it against the same string three times in a row*. Can anyone else reproduce this problem? Has anyone any suggestions as to what might be causing it? Perhaps it's some kind of boundary condition in the re module? I don't really have the time to pursue it much further, so it looks like I'll have to settle with a Tracker entry and a nasty hack. seb

Multithread transaction problems in ZODB
by Cyril Elkaim 26 Sep '01

26 Sep '01

Hi, We are testing ZODB directly from Python and have a multitread ConflictError problem. In short :-) if we open a connection in a first thread, then a second connection in a second thread and then commit the first one and then the second (the transactions are so interlaced)... Not only we have the ConflicError, even if obviously we do not modify or create the same objects. But in fact the last transaction doesn't even have its own objects saved. We are using ZODB from Zope 2.4. We have a similar problem using Berkeley Storage too (beta4). If the two threads are serialized eveything works fine (but that's no more multithreading no? ;-) So is it possible to access ZODB from a multithreaded application? Thanks in advance Cyril Elkaim

ImportError (No module names utils)

26 Sep '01

Hi, after using a module named utils in a Zope product the root management screen is no longer available (the module is now renamed). The traceback looks like this: Traceback (innermost last): File /home/morten/tmp/Zope-2.4.1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 223, in publish_module File /home/morten/tmp/Zope-2.4.1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 187, in publish File /home/morten/tmp/Zope-2.4.1-src/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 226, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: ApplicationDefaultPermissions) File /home/morten/tmp/Zope-2.4.1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 171, in publish File /home/morten/tmp/Zope-2.4.1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: manage_main) File /home/morten/tmp/Zope-2.4.1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 112, in call_object (Object: manage_main) File /home/morten/tmp/Zope-2.4.1-src/lib/python/Shared/DC/Scripts/Bindings.py, line 324, in __call__ (Object: manage_main) File /home/morten/tmp/Zope-2.4.1-src/lib/python/Shared/DC/Scripts/Bindings.py, line 354, in _bindAndExec (Object: manage_main) File /home/morten/tmp/Zope-2.4.1-src/lib/python/App/special_dtml.py, line 244, in _exec (Object: manage_main) File /home/morten/tmp/Zope-2.4.1-src/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_In.py, line 711, in renderwob (Object: objectItems) File /home/morten/tmp/Zope-2.4.1-src/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_In.py, line 839, in sort_sequence (Object: objectItems) File /home/morten/tmp/Zope-2.4.1-src/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py, line 544, in setstate ImportError: (see above) Any ideas?

monitor_client.py in Zope 2.4.1 not working properly
by Morten W. Petersen 26 Sep '01

26 Sep '01

Hi, I've been playing a bit with the monitor_client (ZServer/medusa), and it seems all exceptions aren't raised so it's visible in the client, it's seen in the debug output from Zope itself. Has anyone experienced this? -Morten

RE: [Zope-dev] Zope on Windows: enhancements proposed

I have to disagree about the Zope (%s), I have been known to run 2 or 3 Zope services, for different instances, and I always know that I can find them all huddled together at the bottom of the Service Manager - Very useful.

making wo_pcgi only rebuild when necessary.
by Anthony Baxter 26 Sep '01

26 Sep '01

I've got Zope code and installation pretty heavily automated here, but one thing that takes a while is that after a cvs update, I have to do a complete wo_pcgi on each box to make sure everything's up to date. This forces everything to be rebuilt. Is there anything that could be done to make it only rebuild what's needed? Anthony

Many sites (including most I've done) are mainly over-the-web code. I also agree that 'data' should not be source controlled (although I could see some content management applications where this distinction could get kind of murky).
